Aye,
There were more personalities in them days, but certainly some whims. Clive Thomas had a very personal take on the laws for instance. I remember that he somehow got into his head that he couldn’t blow for time with a player about to take a corner but would do so when the ball was in mid-flight, which caused some problems in the 78 WC, as Brazil scored just as the signal came. And he had a few more whims.
